problem in log files
Sorry,
But i am not sure if i understood your problem...
Do you like to stop the log's rotate?
Because the logrotate is your friend, if you stop the logrotate your
log files will be bigger and bigger...

Dr Alan J Bartlett
problem in log files
Marcos,
I'm not sure if I understand exactly what it is you want to do. However I can tell you that the ".gz" files are being created because a line in /etc/logrotate.conf has been un-commented.
Change the line "compress" to "#compress".
If you want to reduce the number of weeks of back-logs you keep from four to - let's say - two, change the line in logrotate.conf "rotate 4" to "rotate 2". Now just remove the old back-logs:
rm *.[1-4] *.gz
>From now on, for a logfile named, say "boot.log", you will just see the current logfile, "boot.log" and the previous two weeks back-logs, "boot.log.1" and "boot.log.2".
Hope this helps.
Alan.
